1
00:00:01,632 --> 00:00:03,333
(Gossip girl) Good morning,
upper east siders.

2
00:00:03,334 --> 00:00:05,575
Gossip girl here...
Your one and only source

3
00:00:05,576 --> 00:00:10,080
into the scandalous lives
of Manhattan's elite.

4
00:00:10,081 --> 00:00:12,182
Top story on my home page...

5
00:00:12,183 --> 00:00:15,715
Serena Van Der Woodsen,
everybody's favorite "it" girl,

6
00:00:15,716 --> 00:00:18,718
has just returned
from a mysterious absence.

7
00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:22,322
You'll never believe
what's on "gossip girl."
Someone saw Serena getting off
a train at grand central.

8
00:00:22,323 --> 00:00:25,024
Everyone knows Serena...
(Cell phones ring)

9
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:26,726
And everyone is talking.

10
00:00:26,727 --> 00:00:29,329
(Eleanor)
Blair, it's Serena.

11
00:00:29,330 --> 00:00:30,730
Serena?

12
00:00:30,731 --> 00:00:33,263
And b.'S boyfriend Nate...
Rumor has it...

13
00:00:33,264 --> 00:00:35,435
He's always had a thing
for Serena.

14
00:00:35,436 --> 00:00:38,138
But you're back now.
I didn't come back for you.

15
00:00:38,139 --> 00:00:40,610
Look, Blair's my best friend,
and you're her boyfriend,

16
00:00:40,611 --> 00:00:42,242
and she loves you.

17
00:00:42,243 --> 00:00:45,115
Why did she leave?
Why did she return?

18
00:00:45,116 --> 00:00:47,177
Must be a lot of rumors
why you're back.

19
00:00:47,178 --> 00:00:49,249
Yeah, but none of them
mention you.

20
00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:52,382
He tries to take his own life,
and you're worried

21
00:00:52,383 --> 00:00:55,385
it's gonna cost you, mom?
You have no idea
what it's been like.

22
00:00:55,386 --> 00:00:57,427
The best friend
and the boyfriend...

23
00:00:57,428 --> 00:01:00,130
That's pretty classy, s.
And Nate's friend Chuck

24
00:01:00,131 --> 00:01:02,092
won't let Serena
forget about her past.

25
00:01:02,093 --> 00:01:05,665
I'm trying to change.
I liked you better before.

26
00:01:05,666 --> 00:01:07,297
And then there's Dan,
the outsider.

27
00:01:07,298 --> 00:01:10,100
Looks like his childhood crush
has returned.

28
00:01:10,101 --> 00:01:12,642
She doesn't know me.
Nobody knows me. It's cool.

29
00:01:12,643 --> 00:01:15,205
No. No, no, no, no, no.
Uh, Serena, um,
do you know this young man?

30
00:01:15,206 --> 00:01:18,148
Oh, from last night.
You remember me?

31
00:01:18,149 --> 00:01:20,810
You'd really go out
with some guy you don't know?

32
00:01:20,811 --> 00:01:22,812
Well, he can't be worse
than the guys I do know.

33
00:01:22,813 --> 00:01:25,285
Guess whose dad is cool.
It's a trick question.

34
00:01:25,286 --> 00:01:27,557
(Dan) Yeah,
'cause it can't be ours.

35
00:01:27,558 --> 00:01:30,360
"Top ten forgotten bands
of the '90s."
Yeah, check out
who's number nine.

36
00:01:30,361 --> 00:01:32,292
He's very proud.
Hey! Hey,
way to be forgotten.

37
00:01:32,293 --> 00:01:35,325
(Lily) Why is my daughter
going to one of your concerts?

38
00:01:35,326 --> 00:01:38,828
Well, our kids were bound
to meet. It's a small island.
Are you sure it's not some ploy,
your using my daughter

39
00:01:38,829 --> 00:01:41,701
to get to me
now that your wife left you?

40
00:01:41,702 --> 00:01:44,103
Serena and her mystery man
made a surprise appearance

41
00:01:44,104 --> 00:01:46,536
at Blair's
kiss on the lips party.

42
00:01:46,537 --> 00:01:48,778
(Both) Serena's here?

43
00:01:48,779 --> 00:01:51,211
What is she doing here?
She wasn't invited.

44
00:01:51,212 --> 00:01:54,814
But Serena wasn't the only one
who made an impression...
Who's the newbie?

45
00:01:54,815 --> 00:01:56,846
Jenny made an impression
on Chuck.

46
00:01:56,847 --> 00:01:58,848
Let's go and talk
somewhere quieter.

47
00:01:58,849 --> 00:02:00,890
Get off! Stop!

48
00:02:00,891 --> 00:02:03,593
Hey! That is my little sister!

49
00:02:03,594 --> 00:02:05,655
Don't you ever touch her again!

50
00:02:05,656 --> 00:02:07,857
Hey, your life is over, slut!

51
00:02:07,858 --> 00:02:10,129
She better
not show her face again.

52
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:12,432
I'm actually hoping she will.

53
00:02:12,433 --> 00:02:17,207
You think I got a shot
at a second date?
We'll talk about it
in the cab.

54
00:02:17,208 --> 00:02:19,209
And now that s. Is back,

55
00:02:19,210 --> 00:02:21,841
will the Upper East Side
ever be the same?

56
00:02:21,842 --> 00:02:25,576
We're all just dying
to see what happens next.

57
00:02:27,848 --> 00:02:29,419
And who am I?

58
00:02:29,420 --> 00:02:31,921
That's a secret I'll never tell.

59
00:02:31,922 --> 00:02:34,724
You know you love me.

60
00:02:34,725 --> 00:02:38,158
X.o.x.o., gossip girl.

61
00:02:41,492 --> 00:02:45,195
♫♫

62
00:02:45,196 --> 00:02:47,197
I bet you're wondering

63
00:02:47,198 --> 00:02:49,199
what gossip girl
is doing up so early.

64
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,341
Truth is, I never went to bed.

65
00:02:51,342 --> 00:02:53,273
Why waste precious time dreaming

66
00:02:53,274 --> 00:02:55,275
when waking life
is so much better?

67
00:02:55,276 --> 00:02:57,377
(Gia Farrell)
♫ I did cause a commotion ♫

68
00:02:57,378 --> 00:02:59,779
♫ I can't help
but make a scene ♫
♫ ooh ♫

69
00:02:59,780 --> 00:03:01,511
♫ I ain't looking ♫

70
00:03:01,512 --> 00:03:04,354
Is there really anything better
than a lazy Sunday?

71
00:03:04,355 --> 00:03:06,856
Reading the paper in bed,
sipping coffee,

72
00:03:06,857 --> 00:03:08,858
scrambling an egg or two.

73
00:03:08,859 --> 00:03:10,360
Yeah, right.

74
00:03:10,361 --> 00:03:12,492
We upper east siders
don't do lazy.

75
00:03:12,493 --> 00:03:14,864
Breakfast is brunch,
and it comes with champagne,

76
00:03:14,865 --> 00:03:17,497
a dress code and a hundred
of our closest friends...

77
00:03:17,498 --> 00:03:18,868
And enemies.

78
00:03:18,869 --> 00:03:20,600
♫ Say, hey,
is it gonna be tonight? ♫

79
00:03:20,601 --> 00:03:23,373
♫ Come hit me up,
come hit me up ♫

80
00:03:23,374 --> 00:03:25,635
Chuck's dad, Bart bass,

81
00:03:25,636 --> 00:03:27,907
is hosting the annual brunch
for his foundation.

82
00:03:27,908 --> 00:03:29,379
Everyone is invited.

83
00:03:29,380 --> 00:03:31,641
Well, not everyone.

84
00:03:31,642 --> 00:03:32,982
♫ Held me right ♫

85
00:03:32,983 --> 00:03:34,244
♫♫

86
00:03:34,245 --> 00:03:35,985
Oh. Hey, you're up.

87
00:03:35,986 --> 00:03:38,788
And you're checking up on me.

88
00:03:38,789 --> 00:03:40,219
(Sighs deeply)

89
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:42,221
I'm okay.
Really, I'm okay.

90
00:03:42,222 --> 00:03:45,224
You know, I was okay
when you asked me at the party

91
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:47,226
and in the cab,
when we got home,

92
00:03:47,227 --> 00:03:49,399
before and after
I brushed my teeth.

93
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,962
Look, I just feel really stupid.

94
00:03:52,963 --> 00:03:55,405
I mean, how could
I have actually thought

95
00:03:55,406 --> 00:03:58,968
that Chuck bass
just wanted to talk to me?

96
00:03:58,969 --> 00:04:00,570
Because you trust people,

97
00:04:00,571 --> 00:04:02,512
which is normally a good thing.

98
00:04:02,513 --> 00:04:05,315
Yeah, except
when it involves Chuck.
Yeah, pretty much.

99
00:04:05,316 --> 00:04:08,718
So the real question is,
uh, how are you?

100
00:04:08,719 --> 00:04:10,950
Me?

101
00:04:10,951 --> 00:04:13,283
Why wouldn't I be okay?

102
00:04:13,284 --> 00:04:15,625
You know, at the end
of the night, with Serena

103
00:04:15,626 --> 00:04:17,287
and the... the... the...

104
00:04:17,288 --> 00:04:19,290
Was it really that bad?

105
00:04:23,394 --> 00:04:24,995
This is me.

106
00:04:28,539 --> 00:04:30,700
So... good night.

107
00:04:30,701 --> 00:04:32,001
Yeah. (Chuckles)

108
00:04:32,002 --> 00:04:34,345
Yeah.
Um, yeah, good night.

109
00:04:38,779 --> 00:04:42,412
(Scoffs) Go! Walk her
to the door. Something. Go!
Okay.

110
00:04:42,413 --> 00:04:45,385
Oh! Oh, god.
That hurt a lot.
Whoa, whoa, stop, stop.
Sir, stop, stop, stop.

111
00:04:45,386 --> 00:04:48,057
(Brakes screech)
Aah!

112
00:04:48,058 --> 00:04:51,290
Oh, I think
I have brain damage.
You know what, Dan?
If you had brain damage,

113
00:04:51,291 --> 00:04:54,063
you wouldn't even know
if you had brain damage.
No, let's go, please.
Uh, wi... williamsburg.

114
00:04:54,064 --> 00:04:55,665
(Jenny) No!

115
00:04:55,666 --> 00:04:57,868
H-hi.

116
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:01,632
(Scoffs)

117
00:05:04,775 --> 00:05:06,336
So he waved?

118
00:05:06,337 --> 00:05:08,838
I wouldn't have
taken him for a waver.

119
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,080
No, he was just trying
to be funny.

120
00:05:11,081 --> 00:05:12,712
Maybe he's shy.
Or he hates me.

121
00:05:12,713 --> 00:05:15,415
No guy in the history
of the world has ever hated you.

122
00:05:15,416 --> 00:05:17,417
She probably thinks
I hate her now.

123
00:05:17,418 --> 00:05:19,849
I've waited my entire adolescent
life for a date with this girl,

124
00:05:19,850 --> 00:05:21,951
you know,
Serena Van Der Woodsen...

125
00:05:21,952 --> 00:05:25,495
And I decide to close
the evening with a wave.
It was a nice wave.

126
00:05:25,496 --> 00:05:27,727
At the end of a date?
Come on, there's no such thing.

127
00:05:27,728 --> 00:05:30,730
And you only get one shot
with a girl like Serena.

128
00:05:30,731 --> 00:05:34,464
I got mine, and I blew it.
Which means
you have nothing to lose.

129
00:05:34,465 --> 00:05:38,568
(Sighs) No, nothing except
my last shred of dignity.
Oh, no. I think that's gone.

130
00:05:38,569 --> 00:05:40,740
You're right.

131
00:05:40,741 --> 00:05:43,913
You know what? I'm just...
I'm gonna go talk to her.

132
00:05:43,914 --> 00:05:46,516
I'm gonna apologize
for the wave.

133
00:05:46,517 --> 00:05:48,678
I'm gonna tell her
how much I like her,

134
00:05:48,679 --> 00:05:50,680
and I'm gonna ask
for a second shot.

135
00:05:50,681 --> 00:05:53,783
No, I'm gonna get
a second shot.
Yeah, you are.

136
00:05:53,784 --> 00:05:55,054
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait.

137
00:05:55,055 --> 00:05:56,556
I love the plan,

138
00:05:56,557 --> 00:05:59,358
but, uh, you need
a better outfit.

139
00:05:59,359 --> 00:06:01,531
And maybe a shower.

140
00:06:01,532 --> 00:06:02,862
(Snaps fingers)

141
00:06:02,863 --> 00:06:05,535
♫♫

142
00:06:05,536 --> 00:06:07,537
Whatever.
It's probably for the best.

143
00:06:07,538 --> 00:06:10,440
The last thing I need
in my life is a new guy.

144
00:06:10,441 --> 00:06:12,942
He was just so smart, though,

145
00:06:12,943 --> 00:06:14,844
and... and funny...

146
00:06:14,845 --> 00:06:17,607
It sounds like you like him.

147
00:06:17,608 --> 00:06:19,679
And really nice.

148
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,012
God, Blair was
so mean to me last night.

149
00:06:23,013 --> 00:06:25,685
I don't even know why.
Whatever.

150
00:06:25,686 --> 00:06:28,558
I'm sure if we talk about it,
we can work it out.

151
00:06:28,559 --> 00:06:30,560
Hey, maybe I should
go over there.

152
00:06:30,561 --> 00:06:33,392
(Blair) Serena had better
just stay away.

153
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,465
Thank you, Dorota.
(Isabel) Yeah, thanks.

154
00:06:35,466 --> 00:06:38,468
We love sleeping at Blair's.
I don't want
to see Serena at school,

155
00:06:38,469 --> 00:06:41,070
and she better not show
at brunch today.
You're really mad at Serena.

156
00:06:41,071 --> 00:06:43,933
Yeah, I hope you never
get that mad at us.
Well, you would never do
what Serena did.

157
00:06:43,934 --> 00:06:47,006
No, never.
Of course not.

158
00:06:47,007 --> 00:06:48,738
I wonder if Nate
remembered brunch.

159
00:06:48,739 --> 00:06:50,880
It would be so wrong
for me to show up

160
00:06:50,881 --> 00:06:53,783
without my boyfriend
whom I love, and who loves me.
(Cell phone beeps)

161
00:06:53,784 --> 00:06:57,087
(Cell phone vibrating)

162
00:07:00,791 --> 00:07:03,122
(Vibrating continues)

163
00:07:03,123 --> 00:07:05,855
Mm.

164
00:07:05,856 --> 00:07:07,026
Hello?

165
00:07:07,027 --> 00:07:09,629
Hi, sweetie.
Did I wake you?

166
00:07:09,630 --> 00:07:11,461
No, I'm up.

167
00:07:11,462 --> 00:07:13,032
Well, get some strong coffee

168
00:07:13,033 --> 00:07:15,034
and jump in the shower,
sleepyhead.

169
00:07:15,035 --> 00:07:17,036
Chuck's dad's brunch
for his foundation

170
00:07:17,037 --> 00:07:20,870
is today at the palace.
Oh, right. Of course.

171
00:07:20,871 --> 00:07:21,971
(Cell phone beeps)

172
00:07:21,972 --> 00:07:23,913
(Exhales deeply)

173
00:07:23,914 --> 00:07:25,174
(Poker chips clatter)

174
00:07:25,175 --> 00:07:28,047
Nathaniel, keep it down.

175
00:07:28,048 --> 00:07:30,520
Some of us are trying
to regain our strength.

176
00:07:30,521 --> 00:07:32,051
Your dad's brunch is today.

177
00:07:32,052 --> 00:07:33,953
Alarm's set for 9:00.

178
00:07:33,954 --> 00:07:34,984

179
00:07:34,985 --> 00:07:37,087
(Sighs deeply)

180
00:07:40,931 --> 00:07:42,992
Ladies, double-time.

181
00:07:42,993 --> 00:07:44,064
Hmm?

182
00:07:46,737 --> 00:07:49,468
Oh, unless... Nathaniel...

183
00:07:49,469 --> 00:07:51,140
I'm good.

184
00:07:51,141 --> 00:07:54,243
Actually, could you two
bring some coffee

185
00:07:54,244 --> 00:07:57,877
when you get a chance?
And some water... lots of water.

186
00:07:57,878 --> 00:08:00,580
You want ice with that?

187
00:08:00,581 --> 00:08:02,882
Looks like you could use some.

188
00:08:02,883 --> 00:08:04,914
That's enough, ladies.

189
00:08:04,915 --> 00:08:07,517
And I'll be sure
to tell my father

190
00:08:07,518 --> 00:08:11,962
just how committed you are
to the hospitality industry.

191
00:08:13,063 --> 00:08:16,626
That kid popped
you pretty good, huh?

192
00:08:16,627 --> 00:08:20,900
Never mess
with a guy's sister.
And if I knew his name,
I'd hunt him down and kill him.

193
00:08:20,901 --> 00:08:22,902
Why, 'cause you kill people now?

194
00:08:22,903 --> 00:08:25,104
You gonna strangle him
with your scarf?

195
00:08:25,105 --> 00:08:27,677
Don't mock the scarf, Nathaniel.
It's my signature.

196
00:08:27,678 --> 00:08:28,908
I'm just saying,

197
00:08:28,909 --> 00:08:31,641
death by scarf...
Not that intimidating.

198
00:08:31,642 --> 00:08:34,043
He sucker punched me.
I told you.

199
00:08:34,044 --> 00:08:36,916
Besides, better a broken nose

200
00:08:36,917 --> 00:08:39,118
than a broken heart.

201
00:08:39,119 --> 00:08:41,891
What? I didn't even talk
to Serena last night.

202
00:08:41,892 --> 00:08:44,595
Who said anything about Serena?

203
00:08:47,898 --> 00:08:51,001
(Blender whirring)

204
00:08:56,837 --> 00:08:58,267
Do I look okay?

205
00:08:58,268 --> 00:09:00,009
Definitely second-shot material.

206
00:09:00,010 --> 00:09:02,011
All right, then I'm gonna go.

207
00:09:02,012 --> 00:09:04,073
Oh, um,

208
00:09:04,074 --> 00:09:07,016
and about what happened,
you know, with, uh, Chuck?

209
00:09:07,017 --> 00:09:09,949
If you wanna,
like, talk to someone...

210
00:09:09,950 --> 00:09:12,551
N-not your brother...
Just let me know.

211
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:14,754
Okay.

212
00:09:14,755 --> 00:09:16,255
Yeah, I'll...

213
00:09:16,256 --> 00:09:17,688
All right.

214
00:09:19,730 --> 00:09:21,090
Hey, uh, wait.

215
00:09:21,091 --> 00:09:24,094
Actually, there is someone
I wanna talk to.

216
00:09:25,696 --> 00:09:27,697
Hey, hey, where you guys going?

217
00:09:27,698 --> 00:09:29,769
I was gonna make waffles.
Ooh. Sorry, dad.

218
00:09:29,770 --> 00:09:32,041
Yeah, can't.
But I wanna hear
about your date.

219
00:09:32,042 --> 00:09:34,043
(Dan) Later.
And your party.

220
00:09:34,044 --> 00:09:36,846
When we get back.
You guys missed
a really great show,

221
00:09:36,847 --> 00:09:38,748
and I make really good waffles.

Hi. This is,
uh, Nate Archibald

224
00:09:43,684 --> 00:09:45,785
calling from the bass suite.
I know you don't normally

225
00:09:45,786 --> 00:09:48,317
give out this information,
but can you tell me what room

226
00:09:48,318 --> 00:09:50,690
the Van Der woodsens
are in, please?

227
00:09:50,691 --> 00:09:52,061
Hey, Blair. It's me.

228
00:09:52,062 --> 00:09:54,063
Uh, I guess
you're still sleeping,

229
00:09:54,064 --> 00:09:55,965
but I'm gonna come over.

230
00:09:55,966 --> 00:09:57,967
I think we need to talk.

231
00:09:57,968 --> 00:09:59,929
Okay. Uh, see you soon. Bye.

232
00:09:59,930 --> 00:10:03,903

the table's all set.

As soon as the guests arrive,
we can start dishing.

236
00:10:10,911 --> 00:10:12,942
Here's what's on the menu...

(Tires screech, loud crash)

240
00:10:25,756 --> 00:10:27,857
Mom, did you borrow
my Michel perrys?

241
00:10:27,858 --> 00:10:29,899
(Groans)
I can't find anything in here!

242
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:31,901
Well, it might help
if you unpacked.

243
00:10:31,902 --> 00:10:33,302
Look, you're home now.

244
00:10:33,303 --> 00:10:35,735
It's your life.
You should start living it.

245
00:10:35,736 --> 00:10:37,366
This is not life,
this is a hotel...

246
00:10:37,367 --> 00:10:39,939
Which we're living in because
you decided you didn't like

247
00:10:39,940 --> 00:10:42,812
the color of the walls
in our real home.

248
00:10:42,813 --> 00:10:44,844
Mom, I said
I'd go to this brunch.

249
00:10:44,845 --> 00:10:47,677
What more do you want from me?
Sweetie, why are you
being like this?

250
00:10:47,678 --> 00:10:50,049
You love parties.
This is just not like you.

251
00:10:50,050 --> 00:10:53,652
Maybe it is like me. Maybe you
don't know what I'm really like.

252
00:10:53,653 --> 00:10:55,755
Oh, okay, tell me.

253

(Rooney's "when did your heart
go missing?" Playing)

254
00:10:58,729 --> 00:11:02,962
So did you and Dan have fun
at the concert last night?

255
00:11:02,963 --> 00:11:04,333
We, um, never made it.

256
00:11:04,334 --> 00:11:07,867
We actually ended up
at the kiss on the lips party.

257
00:11:07,868 --> 00:11:10,740
Ah. Well,
that must have pleased Blair.

258
00:11:10,741 --> 00:11:12,772
Blair? Actually,
no, not that pleased,

259
00:11:12,773 --> 00:11:15,004
which is why I'm going
to talk to her.

260
00:11:15,005 --> 00:11:18,277
Well just be back
in time for brunch, okay?
Mom.

261
00:11:18,278 --> 00:11:20,079
Look, honey, I know how hard
it is for you to be back,

262
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,281
but the more
you hide yourself away,

263
00:11:22,282 --> 00:11:25,314
the more people are gonna think
you have something to hide.
Coming from someone

264
00:11:25,315 --> 00:11:27,316
who's keeping my brother
in an institution.

265
00:11:27,317 --> 00:11:29,218
That's different.
I mean it. Don't be late.

00:11:49,039 --> 00:11:52,081
Uh, I-I was in yesterday
with Serena.
How could I forget?

275
00:11:52,082 --> 00:11:56,015
Yeah, well, um, is she in?

276
00:11:56,016 --> 00:11:59,048
Just missed her, actually,
but you're welcome to wait.

277
00:11:59,049 --> 00:12:00,449
Okay, maybe I will.

278
00:12:00,450 --> 00:12:03,052
She... she probably
won't be that long, right?

279
00:12:03,053 --> 00:12:06,155
Once she went out and didn't
come back for six months,

280

Hi, Nate.
It's great to see you.

285
00:12:24,744 --> 00:12:27,346
Hi, Mrs. Van Der Woodsen.
Good to see you.
Oh, I'm just heading out.

286
00:12:27,347 --> 00:12:30,920
Oh, is Serena in?
Oh, you just missed her,
but I'll tell her you came by.

287
00:12:30,921 --> 00:12:34,223
I'm sure she'll
be happy to hear it.
Uh, I don't know about that.

288
00:12:34,224 --> 00:12:36,055
Oh, what?
Come on, Serena loves you.

289
00:12:36,056 --> 00:12:38,858
I mean, I think she's always
had a little crush on you.

290
00:12:38,859 --> 00:12:41,330
Of course, you and Blair
are the perfect couple.

291
00:12:41,331 --> 00:12:45,194
Mm. Is Serena gonna be long?
I could just wait.
Oh, well, Dexter here
can take care of you.

292
00:12:45,195 --> 00:12:47,837
I'm just gonna step out
for a while.

Nate's gonna wait for Serena.

294
00:12:50,170 --> 00:12:53,874
Great. He can get in line
behind that guy.

295
00:12:57,247 --> 00:13:00,009

Serena's visit was short
and apparently not very sweet.

341
00:15:28,498 --> 00:15:30,359
But you know what is?

342
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:31,500
Revenge.

343
00:15:31,501 --> 00:15:34,363
We hear it's best served cold.

344
00:15:34,364 --> 00:15:36,536

Dorota, I told you
I didn't want to see anyone.

348
00:15:54,554 --> 00:15:56,155
Hi, Jenny.

349
00:15:56,156 --> 00:15:57,256
Hi.

350
00:15:57,257 --> 00:16:00,389
What do you want?

351
00:16:00,390 --> 00:16:02,031
Uh...

352
00:16:02,032 --> 00:16:06,465
I realized that I still have
your calligraphy pens

353
00:16:06,466 --> 00:16:08,037
from the party invitations,

354
00:16:08,038 --> 00:16:10,439
and thought you might
need them for something.

355
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,002
That is the lamest excuse
I've ever heard.

356
00:16:13,003 --> 00:16:16,045
You wanna know what Chuck bass
is saying about you.

357
00:16:16,046 --> 00:16:18,307
No.

358
00:16:18,308 --> 00:16:21,050
Is he... saying things?

359
00:16:21,051 --> 00:16:22,051
Is anyone?

360
00:16:22,052 --> 00:16:23,452
Mm... no.

361
00:16:23,453 --> 00:16:25,154
Not yet, anyway.

362
00:16:25,155 --> 00:16:29,259
Chuck likes to brag about
his conquests, not his victims.

363
00:16:34,324 --> 00:16:37,466
Come on. You can help me
get ready for brunch.

364
00:16:37,467 --> 00:16:39,569
Okay. Sure.

365
00:16:47,537 --> 00:16:49,508
Nice flowers.

366
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:51,211
They're hydrangeas.

367

(Horns honk)

368
00:16:59,649 --> 00:17:01,490
Just coffee.
I'm not staying long.

369
00:17:01,491 --> 00:17:04,493
I'd like to get out of here
before someone throws me down

370
00:17:04,494 --> 00:17:07,456
and tattoos me.
This is Brooklyn, lil,
not the warped tour.

371
00:17:07,457 --> 00:17:09,628
And don't tell me you had
all your tattoos removed.

372
00:17:09,629 --> 00:17:12,161
I mean, even that one,

373
00:17:12,162 --> 00:17:15,234
that little heart-shaped one
between your, uh...
Uh, don't try to be cute, okay?

374
00:17:15,235 --> 00:17:18,367
Those days
are well behind you.
And here I thought I was getting
better-looking every day.

375
00:17:18,368 --> 00:17:21,640
So what's the big emergency?
Dan went out
with Serena last night.

376
00:17:21,641 --> 00:17:25,043
And us Humphreys
sure are proud of him.
Well, currently,
he's sitting in the lobby

377
00:17:25,044 --> 00:17:27,676
of the hotel
where we're living.
(Woman) Hi. Can I help you?

378
00:17:27,677 --> 00:17:31,049
Two americanos...
One with an extra shot?
Mm-hmm.

379
00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:33,422
You don't actually think
I'm gonna tell my kid

380
00:17:33,423 --> 00:17:35,154
who he can and can't date.

381
00:17:35,155 --> 00:17:37,426
I mean, is that really
the reason you came down here?

382
00:17:37,427 --> 00:17:40,259
Oh, well, I know
what you're implying.
Admit it.
You're falling for me again.

383
00:17:40,260 --> 00:17:42,661
You're right, you're right.
It's the low-income tax bracket,

384
00:17:42,662 --> 00:17:44,563
the bad v-neck t-shirts,
the awful jokes.

385
00:17:44,564 --> 00:17:47,296
I don't know why your wife you.

386
00:17:47,297 --> 00:17:49,538
Well, she's got better
taste than you.
Here you are. Thanks.

387
00:17:49,539 --> 00:17:51,740
I mean, come on.
Why else have I seen you

388
00:17:51,741 --> 00:17:56,105
more in the last 2 days
than in the last 15 years?
An unfortunate twist of fate.

389
00:17:56,106 --> 00:17:58,547
But fate nonetheless.
Unless you, uh...

390
00:17:58,548 --> 00:18:00,279
Are you seeing someone?

391
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:01,810
No, not really.

392
00:18:01,811 --> 00:18:04,313
Uh-huh, not serious...

393
00:18:04,314 --> 00:18:06,655
Or he's married.
That is your type.

394
00:18:06,656 --> 00:18:08,317
That's enough, Rufus.

395
00:18:08,318 --> 00:18:09,788
What's his name?

396
00:18:09,789 --> 00:18:13,462
I've read about him
in "Forbes" or "rolling stone"?

397
00:18:13,463 --> 00:18:16,695
Well, whoever he is, I'm sure
he can't keep up with you.

398
00:18:16,696 --> 00:18:19,298
Well, I'm gonna take that
as a compliment,

399
00:18:19,299 --> 00:18:21,370
but I'm serious.
I'm worried about Serena.

400
00:18:21,371 --> 00:18:23,532
I don't need some new boy
influencing her,

401
00:18:23,533 --> 00:18:26,535
distracting her
from her needs.
Well, no offense, lil,

402
00:18:26,536 --> 00:18:30,108
but I'm guessing a kid like Dan
is exactly what Serena needs.

What do you need
to talk to Serena about?

407
00:18:49,159 --> 00:18:53,232
Nothing,
just in the neighborhood.

408

I...

Am nowhere near

Hey, what are you
doing here?
Why, what is this...
Uh, your hotel?

422

Actually, it is.
Yeah, so unless you have
a reason to be here,

423

I'll have to ask you
to wait on the curb

Trash? Look, man,
I live in Brooklyn, all right?

No offense to the ozarks.

taking this class warfare thing

I haven't even started, man.

Don't tell me you're sticking up

So does that mean
you're friends with Serena now?

I mean, I don't have
a problem with her,

find some way to repay me.

(Laughs)
You've got to be kidding.

516
00:24:03,473 --> 00:24:06,775
Yeah, this was... this was
definitely a bad idea.
This should be fun.

517
00:24:06,776 --> 00:24:08,176
Looks like Chuck and Blair

518
00:24:08,177 --> 00:24:10,819
showed up
with quite an appetite...

519
00:24:10,820 --> 00:24:12,721

Hey, dad,
how's the new song going?

524
00:24:31,701 --> 00:24:33,872
Oh, I think I need more coffee.

525
00:24:33,873 --> 00:24:35,874
Whatever works.

526
00:24:35,875 --> 00:24:38,677
Where'd you get the dress?
Oh, it was a thank you-gift
from Blair

527
00:24:38,678 --> 00:24:42,210
for doing
the party invitations.
Oh, and it looks like a very
expensive thank you-gift.

528
00:24:42,211 --> 00:24:45,814
Dad, she has a closet
the size of this apartment

529
00:24:45,815 --> 00:24:48,817
just full of them.
See, her mom designed it.
And her mom
is very talented,

530
00:24:48,818 --> 00:24:52,220
but the dress you made
for yourself is much nicer.
Which is why
you don't wear dresses.

531
00:24:52,221 --> 00:24:54,092
Uh, one of a couple of reasons.

532
00:24:54,093 --> 00:24:57,165
Hey, you think
the farmers market's still open?

533
00:24:57,166 --> 00:24:59,698
Yeah. Why, you wanna go?
Yeah.

534
00:24:59,699 --> 00:25:02,671
I thought you were getting too
old to go places with your dad.
Well, you used to be cool,

535
00:25:02,672 --> 00:25:04,673
and the '90s
are having a comeback.

536
00:25:04,674 --> 00:25:07,075
You have no idea
how much that hurts.

Father.

I do all this, huh?

568

This party is for you, okay?

569
00:26:22,952 --> 00:26:24,352
So you can meet people,

570
00:26:24,353 --> 00:26:26,354

become a part of something,

Actually, I need to talk to you,
which means you can listen.

582
00:26:53,813 --> 00:26:55,814
Nate, you told Blair.
What were you thinking?

583
00:26:55,815 --> 00:26:58,046
Look, I want to explain.
Excuse me.

584
00:26:58,047 --> 00:27:00,018
Sorry.

585
00:27:00,019 --> 00:27:01,850
We can't talk here.

586

What, where Blair might see us?

587
00:27:03,853 --> 00:27:07,926
Meet me in Chuck's suite.
I'm not sneaking around
with you.

588
00:27:07,927 --> 00:27:09,759
Please. Just to talk.

589
00:27:13,062 --> 00:27:14,663
Ten minutes.

590
00:27:14,664 --> 00:27:17,335
I'll meet you up there.

591
00:27:17,336 --> 00:27:19,768
You look beautiful, as always.

592
00:27:19,769 --> 00:27:21,770
Where's your lovely mother
today?

593
00:27:21,771 --> 00:27:24,042
Paris. Must be some drama
at the atelier.

594
00:27:24,043 --> 00:27:26,044
Oh, nothing too dramatic,
I hope.

595
00:27:26,045 --> 00:27:27,916
Her line is doing very well.

596
00:27:27,917 --> 00:27:30,879
I was just telling my firm what
a great investment she'd make.

597
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,081
She's really going places.

598
00:27:33,082 --> 00:27:36,885
Hopefully places
far, far away. (Laughs)

599
00:27:36,886 --> 00:27:38,256
Just kidding.

600
00:27:38,257 --> 00:27:41,389
Hey. Let me get you a refill.
I'll be right back.

601
00:27:41,390 --> 00:27:43,832

Excuse us.

♫ Oh, no ♫

603
00:27:45,094 --> 00:27:47,395
Blair seems happy.
It looks like, uh,

604
00:27:47,396 --> 00:27:50,398
you're taking care
of business, as discussed.

605
00:27:50,399 --> 00:27:53,001
Dad, not everything in life's
a business deal.

606
00:27:53,002 --> 00:27:54,703
Come talk to me in thirty years.

607

to Timothy good.
Hi.

came to this brunch.

612
00:28:09,959 --> 00:28:12,390
I told her to stay away.

613
00:28:12,391 --> 00:28:15,724

I think you know what you need
to do to get his attention.

617
00:28:23,773 --> 00:28:26,174
And what's that?
The key to my suite,

You're disgusting.
Yes, I am, so why be shy?

I was meeting Nate.

651
00:29:45,384 --> 00:29:48,256
Just to talk, I swear.
You said you'd never
speak to her again.

652
00:29:48,257 --> 00:29:51,259
You said that?
Why would you say that?
Because you can't be trusted.

653
00:29:51,260 --> 00:29:53,461
It's not Serena's fault.
Do not defend her.

654

I asked her to come.
Oh. Oh, so you do want
to talk to her.

655
00:29:57,326 --> 00:30:00,198
Yes, to explain
why I'm not talking to her.

656
00:30:00,199 --> 00:30:01,970
Maybe I'll leave you two

657
00:30:01,971 --> 00:30:03,872
to finish that fascinating
conversation.

658
00:30:03,873 --> 00:30:06,975
Oh, no, no. I'll go. Let you
guys get back to your quickie.

659
00:30:06,976 --> 00:30:08,406
It wasn't a quickie.

660
00:30:08,407 --> 00:30:11,479
Sex is actually kind of
a big deal to some of us.

661

Oh, yeah, I can see that.
Chuck's bed? Very romantic.

662
00:30:14,914 --> 00:30:16,915
Classy, too.

663
00:30:16,916 --> 00:30:18,286
Oh, like you?

664
00:30:18,287 --> 00:30:20,588
I'll bet your new friend Dan

665
00:30:20,589 --> 00:30:23,952
would love to hear
all about how classy you are.

Dan? What...

667
00:30:25,594 --> 00:30:28,826
What, you really think
she would tell him?
It's Blair.

668
00:30:28,827 --> 00:30:31,860
I can't believe you told her.
You just expected me
to keep it a secret?

669
00:30:31,861 --> 00:30:34,232
Yes, Nate. There's nothing wrong
with keeping a secret

670
00:30:34,233 --> 00:30:37,405
if the truth
is gonna hurt someone.
That's a hell of a way
to look at things.

671
00:30:37,406 --> 00:30:39,407
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't
realize all of a sudden

672
00:30:39,408 --> 00:30:41,409
you're the most honest guy
on the planet.

675
00:30:46,916 --> 00:30:50,448

together in public.
No, I do want
to be seen together.

676
00:30:50,449 --> 00:30:53,281
I just don't want to see you
with anyone else.

00:30:53,282 --> 00:30:56,084
Tell your harem
of shopgirls and models

678
00:30:56,085 --> 00:30:59,627
that you're seeing someone.
I am, but those conversations
take a little time.

679
00:30:59,628 --> 00:31:04,062
Well, they've got nothing
but time, Bart. They're 25.

680
00:31:04,063 --> 00:31:06,295
Excuse me.

681
00:31:08,337 --> 00:31:10,138
Dan, wait.

682
00:31:10,139 --> 00:31:13,902
Look, I really don't appreciate
your lurking in the shadows,

683
00:31:13,903 --> 00:31:15,944
eavesdropping
on my private conversation.

684
00:31:15,945 --> 00:31:18,246
What? No. No, no, I wasn't.
I was looking for Serena.

685
00:31:18,247 --> 00:31:21,950
Well, I don't see her.
Do you?
No, which is why
I was looking.

686
00:31:21,951 --> 00:31:24,182
I don't know
what you're doing here

687
00:31:24,183 --> 00:31:27,355
or what you think
you heard...
Nothing. I heard nothing.

688
00:31:27,356 --> 00:31:30,118
But Serena doesn't know.

689
00:31:30,119 --> 00:31:33,161
And neither do I, okay?

690
00:31:33,162 --> 00:31:36,324
So now if you'll excuse me,
I'm gonna go back inside,

691
00:31:36,325 --> 00:31:38,967
not tell anyone a thing
and mind my own business.

692
00:31:38,968 --> 00:31:43,101
♫ So if you feel me,
let me know, know, know ♫

693
00:31:43,102 --> 00:31:46,574
♫ come on now, what you
waiting for, for, for? ♫

694
00:31:46,575 --> 00:31:50,008
♫ My engine's ready
to explode, explode, explode ♫

695
00:31:50,009 --> 00:31:53,111
♫ so start me up
and watch me go, go, go ♫

696
00:31:53,112 --> 00:31:54,412
Dan.

697
00:31:54,413 --> 00:31:57,915
Hi. I'm Blair Waldorf,
Serena's friend.

698
00:31:57,916 --> 00:32:00,518
Oh, hey. Yeah, uh, do you
happen to know where she is?

699
00:32:00,519 --> 00:32:03,321
As a matter of fact, I do.
(Serena) Blair.

700
00:32:03,322 --> 00:32:08,056
Serena, there you are.
Uh, where were you?
She was waiting in a hotel room
for my boyfriend.

701
00:32:08,057 --> 00:32:10,358
To talk.
About why
we weren't talking.

702
00:32:10,359 --> 00:32:14,602
That doesn't sound
any smarter the second time.
Why weren't you talking?

703
00:32:14,603 --> 00:32:17,135
Does this have
anything to do with

704
00:32:17,136 --> 00:32:20,038
why you were waiting
for Serena this morning?
(Blair) You were what?

705
00:32:20,039 --> 00:32:23,571
(Chuck) And here I thought
you were waiting for me.
Oh, exactly what
the situation needs... Chuck.

706
00:32:23,572 --> 00:32:25,974
Now what is going on here?
We were just getting into that.

707
00:32:25,975 --> 00:32:30,318
Blair, please, don't do this.
Sorry. Oh,
do you wanna tell him?

708
00:32:30,319 --> 00:32:33,051
I'll tell him.
(Nate and Blair) You know?

709
00:32:33,052 --> 00:32:35,953
I know everything.
And apparently,
I know nothing.

710
00:32:35,954 --> 00:32:41,159
Look, Dan, it... it was a long
time ago, and I regret it.
(Chuck) Look, Serena,

711
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:42,730
stop trying to pretend
you're a good girl.

712
00:32:42,731 --> 00:32:45,463
So you slept with
your best friend's boyfriend.

713
00:32:45,464 --> 00:32:49,297
I kind of admire you for it.

714
00:32:49,298 --> 00:32:52,401
Is that true?

715
00:32:55,174 --> 00:32:59,308
Well, then she ran away
and lied about it.

716
00:33:02,051 --> 00:33:05,483
I just thought you should know
before you fall head over heels

717
00:33:05,484 --> 00:33:08,186
for your perfect girl
and her perfect world,

718
00:33:08,187 --> 00:33:10,018
and then get left all alone

719
00:33:10,019 --> 00:33:12,690
with no one
but your cabbage patch kid.
Cabbage patch?

720
00:33:12,691 --> 00:33:15,523
Did you talk to my sister?
Ah, yes, little Jenny.

721
00:33:15,524 --> 00:33:18,597
I do believe she and I
have some unfinished business.

722
00:33:22,231 --> 00:33:24,432
You stay away from her.

723
00:33:24,433 --> 00:33:28,236
Poor Daniel. So little time,
so many sluts to defend.

724
00:33:28,237 --> 00:33:30,239
(Woman screams)

725
00:33:39,148 --> 00:33:41,389
(Sighs deeply)

726
00:33:41,390 --> 00:33:44,052
It's fine. It's fine.
Everyone can stop looking.

727
00:33:44,053 --> 00:33:46,324
He's a jerk...

728
00:33:46,325 --> 00:33:49,097
But it's my fault,
and... and I'm leaving.

729
00:33:49,098 --> 00:33:51,099
I... I'll go with you.

730
00:33:51,100 --> 00:33:54,703
Actually,
I'd prefer if you didn't.

731
00:33:56,034 --> 00:33:58,206
Hope you're happy.

732
00:33:58,207 --> 00:34:00,409
Not even close.

733
00:34:10,119 --> 00:34:13,321
Looks like it's just you and me.

734
00:34:13,322 --> 00:34:14,682
Apparently,
my room is available.

735
00:34:14,683 --> 00:34:16,684
♫ Shut up and drive,
drive, drive ♫

736
00:34:16,685 --> 00:34:19,457
Some might call this
a "fustercluck,"

737
00:34:19,458 --> 00:34:23,632
but on the Upper East Side,
we call it Sunday afternoon.

738
00:34:26,395 --> 00:34:28,166
Dan!

739
00:34:28,167 --> 00:34:30,698
Dan, wait. I'm so sorry.
There's no...
There's no need to be.

740
00:34:30,699 --> 00:34:32,670
Really, I shouldn't have come
here today. I made a mistake.

741
00:34:32,671 --> 00:34:35,243
No, you didn't. Look, I'm sorry
about Blair and Chuck...

742
00:34:35,244 --> 00:34:37,275
It's not about Blair or Chuck.

743
00:34:37,276 --> 00:34:39,747
I mean, it is,
but it's... it's not just them.

744
00:34:39,748 --> 00:34:42,610
No, I know. Trust me, I know.
This world... it... it's crazy.

745
00:34:42,611 --> 00:34:44,182
Yeah, it... it is...

746
00:34:44,183 --> 00:34:46,484
(Sighs)
And you're a part of it.

747
00:34:46,485 --> 00:34:49,588
What, and you didn't know that?

748
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,622
I don't know.
I-I thought you were different.

749
00:34:54,623 --> 00:34:59,427
Well, I'm sorry
I'm not who you thought I was,

750
00:34:59,428 --> 00:35:02,730
but what's happened
is in the past,

751
00:35:02,731 --> 00:35:07,205
you know, and all I can do
is try to change.

752
00:35:07,206 --> 00:35:09,477
But if you can't accept that,

753
00:35:09,478 --> 00:35:14,112
then, you know, you're
not who I thought you were.

754
00:35:18,647 --> 00:35:21,819
Well, I guess
we both made mistakes.

755

(Jenny) Hi.
Hey, Jen said
you went looking for Serena.

758
00:35:47,876 --> 00:35:49,577
Did you find her?

759
00:35:49,578 --> 00:35:54,882
Mm. Yeah, yeah, I found her,
and, uh, and then I lost her.

760
00:35:54,883 --> 00:35:58,256
Oh, uh, that's, uh...

761
00:35:58,257 --> 00:36:00,528
It's fine. It's fine.
Really, it's all for the best.

762
00:36:00,529 --> 00:36:04,732
Serena and her friends
and her family...

763
00:36:04,733 --> 00:36:06,264
Her whole world...

764
00:36:06,265 --> 00:36:09,268
Turns out it wasn't for me.

765
00:36:12,301 --> 00:36:15,543
Wait, Dan. What happened?

766
00:36:15,544 --> 00:36:17,845
Did you tell Blair Waldorf
about Cedric?

767
00:36:17,846 --> 00:36:20,709
I...

768
00:36:22,381 --> 00:36:25,383
It may have come up.

769
00:36:25,384 --> 00:36:27,915
You can't trust
these people, Jen.

770
00:36:27,916 --> 00:36:30,258
Don't tell 'em anything.

771
00:36:30,259 --> 00:36:32,390
They're nice flowers.

772
00:36:32,391 --> 00:36:35,794
They're hydrangeas.

773
00:36:41,330 --> 00:36:42,730
Look, Blair,

774
00:36:42,731 --> 00:36:46,904
either you try
to forgive me and move on...

775
00:36:46,905 --> 00:36:49,538
Or we end it.

776
00:36:53,412 --> 00:36:56,515

His name is... oh, who cares?

783

Now that he and s. Are over,

Gifted from Blair herself.
